ran cppcheck and going to make cosmetic changes--where do I submit code?
I ran cppcheck on btrfs and it looks like it says there could be a few cosmetic changes, such as reducing the scope of some variables. I'm guessing that it won't be too terrible if I do make the changes, but where do I submit the code when I'm done?
P.S. This is my first kernel project, so I'm going to need some direction.

You send the patches to this mailing list.
Look at git format-patch and git send-email as far as tools are concerned If yo're looking for tips for creating patches for Linux see at Documentation/SubmitChecklist and Documentation/SubmittingPatches in your Linux checkout.
